Il Vice Console e Capo dell’Ufficio Economico Leonardo Nasi, ha partecipato, in rappresentanza del Console Generale Massimo Carnelos, al G20 Interfaith Forum- IF20 a Salt Lake City.

Il tema dell’evento, “Resilient Hope, Shared Future”, ha portato al centro del dibattito il ruolo del dialogo interreligioso come strumento per costruire ponti e affrontare le sfide comuni: benessere, sicurezza energetica, intelligenza artificiale e dignità umana.

Il forum IF20 è nato nel 2014 per offrire uno spazio di confronto e dialogo tra le comunità religiose e i rappresentanti delle istituzioni. L’Italia promuove da sempre la cooperazione internazionale e il dialogo tra culture diverse, sostenendo iniziative a favore della pace, della comprensione reciproca e del bene comune.

Grazie a tutti coloro che hanno reso possibile questo incontro stimolante e quanto mai necessario. Un ringraziamento speciale a Nick Fuoco, Console Onorario in Utah, per la sua generosa ospitalità.

🇮🇹 Celebrating Italian Heritage Month at San Francisco City Hall!

The Italian flag flew proudly over City Hall as we joined Mayor Daniel Lurie and the Italian-American community to celebrate the enduring contributions of Italians to the history, culture, and identity of San Francisco.

This year's celebration was particularly meaningful as we welcomed Mayor Valter Stoppini of Assisi, San Francisco's sister city and the birthplace of Saint Francis, whose name and legacy have connected our two cities for centuries.

The occasion also marked an important step forward in this relationship with the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding between San Francisco and Assisi, reaffirming their commitment to strengthening cooperation and cultural exchange.

As we commemorate the 800th anniversary of Saint Francis's passing and 250 years since San Francisco's founding.

A heartfelt thank you to Mayor Lurie and the City of San Francisco for their warm welcome and continued friendship with Italy and the Italian-American community.

Viva l’Italia, viva San Francisco! 🇮🇹🇺🇸

🍷 A taste of Sannio in San Francisco! 🇮🇹

From the hills of Campania to the heart of the Bay Area, the Consulate General of Italy in San Francisco hosted a special tasting dedicated to Falanghina, one of Southern Italy’s most distinctive white w**es.

With roots tracing back to Roman times, Falanghina tells the story of a centuries-old w**emaking tradition, particularly in the Sannio region around Mount Taburno.

We were pleased to welcome Carmine Coletta, President of the Sannio Consorzio Tutela Vini, and food journalist Gerardo Antelmo, for an afternoon celebrating Italian w**emaking excellence and the unique identity of Campania’s w**e country.

A special thank you to Francesco Covucci (IL Casaro Pizzeria & Mozzarella Bar) for the delicious food pairings that made the w**es shine!

An evening bringing together Italian tradition, regional excellence, and a shared appreciation for good w**e. Cin cin! 🥂

🇮🇹🤝🇺🇸 La Regione Toscana torna a San Francisco!
A quattro anni dalla prima firma, l’assessore regionale Leonardo Marras e il vicepresidente del Consiglio regionale Antonio Mazzeo hanno rinnovato l’accordo di collaborazione tra la Regione Toscana, il Consolato Generale d’Italia a San Francisco e Innovit - Italian Innovation and Culture Hub.

Per il quarto anno consecutivo, INNOVIT e il Consolato hanno quindi ospitato “Casa Toscana”: una settimana di approfondimenti e occasioni di confronto, durante la quale un gruppo di startup emergenti è entrato in contatto con le conoscenze, le competenze e l’esperienza della Silicon Valley.

L’obiettivo è contribuire allo sviluppo dell’economia regionale e far conoscere la Toscana nel mondo non soltanto per il suo straordinario patrimonio artistico ed enogastronomico, ma anche per un ecosistema tecnologico dinamico e innovativo, con eccellenze nelle biotecnologie, nella manifattura avanzata e in molti altri settori.

Nel corso della settimana, il Console Generale Massimo Carnelos ha inoltre accompagnato una parte della delegazione toscana in visita a Genentech, azienda pioniera dell’industria biotecnologica, e una realtà con una significativa anima italiana grazie al contributo di Napoleone Ferrara e dei numerosi professionisti italiani che oggi vi lavorano.

È stato un vero piacere accogliere nuovamente la Regione Toscana a San Francisco, a presto!

🇮🇹🤝🇺🇸 The Tuscany Region returns to San Francisco!
Four years after the agreement was first signed, Regional Minister Leonardo Marras and Vice President of the Regional Council Antonio Mazzeo renewed the collaboration agreement between the Tuscany Region, the Consulate General of Italy in San Francisco, and INNOVIT – Italian Innovation and Culture Hub.

For the fourth consecutive year, INNOVIT and the Consulate hosted “Casa Toscana”: a week of learning and exchange during which a group of emerging startups had the opportunity to engage with the knowledge, expertise, and experience of Silicon Valley.

The initiative aims to support the regional economy and promote Tuscany worldwide not only for its extraordinary artistic and culinary heritage, but also for its dynamic and innovative technology ecosystem, with areas of excellence ranging from biotechnology to advanced manufacturing and many other sectors.

During the week, Consul General Massimo Carnelos also accompanied part of the Tuscan delegation on a visit to Genentech, a pioneer in the biotechnology industry with a strong Italian connection, thanks to the contributions of Napoleone Ferrara and the many Italian professionals who work there today.

It was a true pleasure to welcome the Tuscany Region back to San Francisco. See you again soon!
